When Denver’s No. 1 offense (yards/points per game) faces Seattle’s No. 1 defense (fewest yards/points allowed) on Sunday, it will mark the fifth such match-up in Super Bowl history. Each day, we’ll look at one of the four previous games:

SUPER BOWL XIX (1985)

San Francisco (top defense) vs. Miami (top offense)

Score: 49ers 38-16.

MVP: 49ers quarterback Joe Montana.

Site: Stanford Stadium, Stanford, Calif.

Closing line: 49ers by 3.

The game:

Future Pro Football Hall of Fame members were abound in this game, from the coaches (Don Shula and Bill Walsh) to the quarterbacks (Dan Marino and Joe Montana). But it was Walsh-Montana who prevailed thanks to a 21-point second quarter.

*Montana was 24-of-35 passing for 331 yards and three touchdowns.

*Marino was 29-of-50 passing for 318 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in his only Super Bowl appearance.
